5/10 live. My AK gets 6 callers and turns a pair.

call and reevaluate imo

Re-evaluate what? Wait for a [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] or Q or something to fall and scare you off your hand? Pray the river gets checked through?

This is closer to a shove/fold decision to me than a shove/call. There's a good chance BB missed a c/r on the flop with a set. It could also be a FD that spiked an ace too.

I really don't have good advice here, but I don't like a call. Can I hear some reasoning on the call?

I think 6 ways you should always tread carefully with TPTK, and even more so when you made your hand on the turn. AT is very well in any of the limpers hands, as well as slow played sets and draws.

I think raising/shoving here is suicide against all but the worst players. Worst players as in...somebody with a weaker ace. I think this spot is bad enough, that I'd rather risk losing to a draw on the river than shoving and drawing very thin.

The tiny bet is pretty strange. I'm not sure what it means, but I think I just call and play it careful. Your hand is too good to fold here, and since you've got the button a call seems like a nice play. If things go crazy on the river you can reevaluate.

You really need to raise more preflop.
5 limpers to you, including the blinds the pot is already 65 bucks.
You need to make this at least 130 to go and see what happens. As soon as the first person calls, everyone else is going to feel like they now have odds to come along with ATC (they are live players afterall).

Also, not continuation betting on the flop put you in a horrible spot. Now you have TPTK and yet you have absolutely no idea where you are in the hand other than in an uncomfortable situation.

So now you are donked into and got a caller. This bet could be "i have a set and want you to raise hoping you caught the Ace" or "I want to see my flush draw cheaply so lets put a bet out there in fear of having to call a real bet if anyone else makes one"

You can't fold, so I think you need to call and just hope you are facing a smallish bet on the river as well....

I think making it $130 preflop is an overbet.

I also don't see the point of continuation betting this flop into 5 other players.

cbetting w/ AK into a 6 way pot unimproved can't be the right play especially when you have position.
